It isn't often I get a pic that really shows the colors in her coat. I think it's so pretty, and even her nose is dark burnt umber not black. Her leg is sound, and if you didn't know it had happened you wouldn't be able to guess. The scar is for the most part furred over, and she seems to be a hundred percent. Hopefully we will be going to the dog park with Zoom and Sawyer in August, that will be the final test. I have forgotten how long I have had her, but she seems like a dog around 7 ish, which would be at her prime. I am pleased with her. not as muscled as she was when we were running every day, but I can only do what i can now. It's going to be different without Victor being able to see. Pepper seems very happy just to hang out in the garden, soak herself in teh sun, and get her morning walk. So if it at least maintains her weight to this level, it can't be too bad. She was so well behaved at the parade that I was very proud to be the other end of the leash. I couldn't have asked for a better behaved dog in a crowd. Petted by many and surprisingly kept that tongue under control with only very minor gentle licks on hands, not full on assault or popping up to plant one on the kisser. That has been the hardest thing in the world for her to learn.
